Problem
Previously, the DART calculation in the out-of-the-box (OOTB) Standard Incident Classification Dashboard could overcount incidents if a single incident form utilizing the Standard Incident section has selected both Lost Time and Restricted Time in the form. This would lead to inflated DART rates in the OOTB dashboard.
To fix this we've made an enhancement to the OOTB Standard Incident Classification Dashboard in the Library folder of the Safety Intelligence module. This update introduces a new measure for DART calculations - DART Injuries - ensuring that the DART rate calculation only counts one incident when classified as both Lost Time (LT) and Restricted Time (RT).
Solution
If you are utilizing the dashboard directly form the Library folder, no changes are required. For those users who may have copied the dashboard or any one of it's tiles to your own Organization or Personal folder, please follow the steps below to update your DART calculation.
Which Tiles Are Affected?
- Incidents & Frequency (TRIFR) Running Total
- Frequency (TRIFR) Monthly Stand Alone
- DART
- Company Incidents & Frequency (TRIFR) Running Total
How to Update the DART Calculation:
1. Go to your copied dashboard or DART tile in your Personal or Organization:
2. In Edit mode find the applicable tile with the DART calculation.
3. Select the new measure: Dart Injuries from the field menu on the left side of the Explore:
4. Open the Data Pane and find the DART table calculation. The field will appear green to indicate it is a table calculation. Click the cog button to open the menu and click the Edit calculation option:
5. Replace the existing formula in the calculation with one of the below calculations - copy/paste in the Expression space as shown in the screenshot.
- Running Total calculation if your tile previously was calculating the rate on a rolling basis:
running_total(${incidentrates.dartinjuries}) * 200000 * 1.00 / running_total(${incidentrates.hoursentered})
- Stand alone calculation if your tile previously was calculating the rate for a standalone period - for example this month, this year etc:
(${incidentrates.dartinjuries})* 200000 * 1.00 / ${incidentrates.hoursentered}
6. Repeat this update for each of the affected tiles listed above.
7. Ensure you save all changes to apply your updates.
Important to Note
- The OOTB dashboard (Standard Incident Classification) is uneditable - these instructions only apply if you have made a copy prior to the update.
- If you are using the original Library folder dashboard (OOTB) - no action is needed
